WASHINGTON (AP) — Same-sex couples would be allowed to marry in the nation’s capital under a bill introduced Tuesday by a District of Columbia councilman.The bill was almost certain to pass and had been expected for some time. But whether it becomes law is more complicated because Congress gets to review D.C. legislation before it takes effect.At least one Republican congressman has said he will work to have the bill defeated if it passes the D.C. council.
